Only two!!
So l downloaded this app to see what it was all about. l have to say l’m disappointed. They say they are focusing on complex relationships but that we are welcome to put forth suggestions. That’s great! I just didn’t realize there are only two kinds of complex relationships. (1) being in some mutual relationship with a narcissist and (2) going through a divorce. That’s it, apparently. There are no other kinds of complex relationships.

A great community, with an app that needs some further development.
The Circles community is fantastic, and has been such a blessing amidst the isolation and loneliness of a toxic relationship. The app, while functional, could use some further development. For one, the iPad simply uses the iPhone app, which really hamstrings the chat functionality. Secondly, the app drains AirPods/headphones by keeping the microphone live, even when you are muted. A few tweaks would really make the app as great as the community it serves.

Healing my heart & spirit
This is a wonderful place where I do not feel alone. I have found comfort in dealing with loneliness, trauma, anxiety, depression. Health issues can cause me to stay inside my home. This Circles has given me the confidence to go forward in life with a positive spirit. I have met a lot of wonderful people going through very difficult situations but we give each other the respect we need and deserve to heal. I will never leave circles. I have grown to love my "Circle" of friends.

Was a member enjoyed some of professionals, peers and some topics that I could fit in!
As of yesterday June 26th 2024, I cannot open app except to a blank screen. Sent email for help. I paid in full; began in April 2024 and subscription ends in March 8th of 2025! I haven’t received any response so I canceled subscription.
Also it began as a trial and automatically went to pay in full at top price without warning. As I heard of less expensive offers and monthly payment offers.
I used this platform as I cannot reach you!

Beware
This app WAS a good space ,, the people were wonderful but then corporate got greedy NEVER gave any of us a heads up and forced subscriptions on everything on app,, not everyone could pay that’s why the Free part was a godsend,, but we were NOT told this was happening and people were blind sided,, triggered a lot of people who have narcissistic people in their lives and then have the app do the same thing,, cruel and indifferent,, sad sad time when they hurt people like they did,, impacted mental health of everyone dependent on connections in the app,, not everyone could even afford the discounts they offered only if they were contacted,, RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!

An amazing blessing in disguise
This app has brought me new meaning to friends and relationships and healthy relationships above all else. I’m not only met brand new people around the world, but I have met incredible people with stories that I can take with me and share with them what God can do in their life just like God has done in mine. God is a healer but it would sometimes do you feel completely it takes Peers. And I definitely found a great group. Thank you very much circles.
I also gave 100% of my time being a guide and helping other individuals through life experiences. It is such a joy to know that I have made an impact in someone’s liffe journey. I pray for the people on this website that they find healing through the blood of Jesus Christ

Roll the dice
Love the concept of this app, in reality not as professionally executed as I hoped especially for between a $15-$30 /month fee depending on the plan you choose. Though it was nice to have the group chat format- many groups are actually led by your peers and not professionals. Or, a “circles expert” which is actually not a licensed mental health professional but someone with “experience.” While the camaraderie of the group chats can be nice at times, at least just as many times I found groups to be the “Wild West” with little structure and lacked the boundaries a well qualified leader would provide. Also many examples of rampantly erroneous “recommendations” based on religious or personal beliefs propagated as fact - when these group leaders actually have no formal credentials in mental health. Though cheaper than therapy , there are plenty of free platforms or support groups to go on and share and get the same quality of content and opinions from lay or “experienced” people. I expected more from a paid service, and would rather not spend my hard earned money to roll the dice on whether I will learn something useful- or a poorly qualified group leader or attendee giving “advise” that serves little more than a soap box to their own personal experiences/opinions and /or religious beliefs.

Great place for those in recovery
This app has helped in so many ways. If you are struggling with the loss of a relationship, grief, even traumatic experiences, connecting with others who’ve gone thru similar life situations can be so healing. The professionals who guide the discussions are great and really do care.
One criticism I have are the bugs in the app. For example, when I’m in a group, I can’t message in the group chat box. My app just freezes so having to close out of the app and miss the discussion is really unfortunate.
Other than that, great app.

Outrageous
I posted a question in a chat room on this app months ago, and I'm told there is no way to go and see if there was an answer to my question. I've been told that I'm the only one who's ever asked to look for a way to easily find a previous post to my question. i'm told there is no way to do this and I will have to scroll back months of chat room messages between 13,000 or more participants in order to find the one post that I had posted back in November. This seems outrageous to me, and only something that will make people who are already stressed out even more frustrated than they already are. You need to seriously reconsider how you've constructed your app because it's counterproductive and only has served to to make life more difficult

Really excellent guide like Becca should be paid.
Becca is my favorite guide in these rooms! Whenever I get a notification that Becca’s opened a room, I go onto Circles! I think a guide as helpful as Becca should be paid for her time! Perhaps there’s a way circles clients can vote for that? I believe most of the people who’ve been helped by Becca, would all agree, she is a unique gem, here at Circles. We should be paying her for her time, here!! I, don’t want to loose her, myself! More importantly, I don’t want the countless others, worse off then me, to miss out, on being helped by Becca!
Please consider adding other employee options, to Circles. I’m definitely interested!
Thank you!
